Member
of trio band JYJ and actor Yoochun revealed his gratitude for receiving
Best New Artist Award at the 4th Beautiful Artist Award ceremony held
on Tuesday.

“I am too honored and grateful today to stand here and receive such a
big award. I was also happy to know that I am receiving a lot of prize
money. I plan to use it with the staff members,” Park said in his
acceptance speech.

“After debuting on the big screen, I have been insisting on
participating in movies rather than TV drama series. This is giving my
agency a hard time on deciding my next work,” he added, revealing his
passion for acting in more films.

The
singer-actor was chosen to receive the award for playing the part of
Dong-sik in the movie “Sea Fog.” Although it was his first challenge in
the film industry, Park has received wide acclaim from viewers,
directors and famous senior actors for his natural acting skills.

So far, Park has already won four Best Rookie Actor awards this year,
and is aiming to seize another victory at the 35th Blue Dragon Film
Awards.

The grand prize for the 4th Beautiful Artist Award went to actor Choi Min-sik, the hero of the hit film “Roaring Currents.”

On December 9, JYJ's Yoochun was spotted at the '4th SACF Beautiful Artists Awards Ceremony,' which was held at Press Center International Conference Hall in Seoul, where he received the Rookie of the Year Award. For
his speech, Yoochun humbly revealed to the crowd that he felt honored
to be awarded such a prize but also revealed that he was embarrassed to
have not done his homework in advance when he wasn't able to recognize
the people who attended. He said, "Thank
you. I didn't realize this would be such a difficult place to be. There
are so many teachers, and people that I've never met before. Yes,
promotions are important but I realized that it is also important to
study when attending important events like this." Yoochun continued, "When
the news came out, I was happy about getting the prize money
(~20,000,000 KRW or around $18,100 USD). But seriously, it's really not
about the money and it's hard to wrap my head around the fact that I'm
standing here receiving such an immense award." The idol-turned-actor then finished his speech and said, "I
was lucky when I debuted and now I'm even able to film movies.
Honestly, after I filmed a movie, I really just want to be in movies
(for the most part) so my staff members are suffering. I'm sorry. I will
work hard on my acting and enjoy working. Thank you for giving me this
award and helping me to continue with my acting career. I will share the
prize money with the staff members. Thank you."Meanwhile, Yoochun took on the role of Dongsik in the movie, 'Sea Fog,'
which was released back in August of 2014. As Dongsik, Yoochun received
much praise for the depth of his acting skills and the way he had
expressed the overall character. Allkpop
